What a lovely and welcome sunny day to launch ‘Stand Up & Be You’ Week! Today marked the start of our annual week where we celebrate diversity across our school encouraging everyone to celebrate being themselves and celebrating our differences! We started our week this morning with handing our multicoloured badges and lanyards to Teachers, launching our Tie-Dye Your Trainer Vote and re-launching our Chairde sa Chúirt (a beautifully decorated room for students to relax in and be themselves.
